The Kirk in the Garden of Evie
THE KIRK IN THE GARDEN OF EVIE A Thumbnail Sketch of the History of the Church in Evie Trevor G Hunt Minister of the linked Churches of Evie, Firth and Rendall, Orkney First Published by Evie Kirk Session Evie, Orkney. 1987 Republished 1996 ComPrint, Orkney 908056 Forward to the 1987 Publication This brief history was compiled for the centenary of the present Evie Church building and I am indebted to all who have helped me in this work. I am especially indebted to the Kirk’s present Session Clerk, William Wood of Aikerness, who furnished useful local information, searched through old Session Minutes, and compiled the list of ministers for Appendix 3. Alastair Marwick of Whitemire, Clerk to the Board, supplied a good deal of literature, obtained a copy of the Title Deeds, gained access to the “Kirk aboon the Hill”, and conducted a tour (even across fields in his car) to various sites. He also contributed valuable local information and I am grateful for all his support. Thanks are also due to Margaret Halcro of Lower Crowrar, Rendall, for information about her name sake, and to the Moars of Crook, Rendall, for other Halcro family details. And to Sheila Lyon (Hestwall, Sandwick), who contributed information about Margaret Halcro (of the seventeenth century!). TREVOR G HUNT Finstown Manse March 1987 Foreword to the 1996 Publication Nearly ten years on seemed a good time to make this history available again, and to use the advances in computer technology to improve its appearance and to make one or two minor corrections.. I was also anxious to include the text of the history as a page on the Evie, Firth and Rendall Churches’ Internet site for reference and, since revision was necessary to do this, it was an opportunity to republish in printed form.

Orkney Winter Plan 2020/21
Gillian Morrison (Interim Chief Officer). Orkney Health and Care. 01856873535 extension: 2611. [email protected] Agenda Item: 11. Integration Joint Board Date of Meeting: 10 February 2021. Subject: Orkney Winter Plan 2020/21. 1. Summary 1.1. This is a whole system plan which aims to address the predicted additional pressures of winter across 2020/21 alongside the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Delivery of this plan will require strong leadership and collaborative working across the health and social care system at the most senior level to provide a focus on the additional impacts, challenges and resources required to sustain safe, effective and person centred care. 2. Purpose 2.1. The purpose of this paper is to present the Integration Joint Board with the draft Orkney Winter Plan 2020/21 for consideration and approval. 3. Recommendations The Integration Joint Board is invited to: 3.1. Approve the Orkney Winter Plan 2020/21, attached as Appendix 1 to this report. 4. Background 4.1. NHS Orkney, in common with other health boards, is expected to prepare a Winter Plan, in partnership based on national guidance and from lessons learned the previous year. 4.2. The Winter Plan, attached as Appendix 1 to this report, aims to create a set of conditions which improve resilience by building capability to absorb, respond and recover from disruptive challenges. Winter disruptions can include increased demand and activity due to seasonal flu, respiratory and circulatory illness; increased numbers of falls and trips; and wards closed to admission due to higher levels of norovirus. 4.3. Given the ongoing emergency footing and the COVID-19 pandemic, planning for this winter where there is a high likelihood of concurrent events is critical in ensuring services are best placed to meet the demands which are likely to be placed on them.

Kirkwall to Stromness and Return
"West about" Kirkwall to Stromness and return These notes are only for guidance about tide times. We accept no responsibility for navigation, avoidance of hazards, weather, or your seamanship. It is 36 nm from Kirkwall to Stromness which looks like a 7+ hour passage at 5 knots but it can easily be done in under 5 hours if the tide is used well. Conversely it can take all day if you get the tides wrong! Skippers should also consider the direction of wind as a fresh westerly or north westerly in conjunction with spring tides can make for a bumpy ride. That being said, if you plan your passage so as to avoid wind against tide it should be a straightforward, enjoyable, fast trip. There are 2 tide “gates” to bear in mind; the first is the exit of Eynhallow Sound at the isle of Eynhallow itself, which is around 12 nm north west from Kirkwall. A severe tide race (known in Orkney as a “rost”, and pronounced “roost”) can be generated during the ebb. The second is the entrance to Hoy Sound, known as Hoy Mouth which once again can generate a severe race on the ebb tide. Both of these tide races usually only appear during ebb tides. The tide streams in Orkney generally turn in line with Dover tide times. A latest departure from Kirkwall at 3 hours after HW Dover should carry you swiftly on the ebb to Eynhallow with an hour or so of ebb still remaining but with the mid tide rost subsiding sufficient to give fair tide westwards after Eynhallow to the Brough of Birsay headland before the eastgoing flood begins.
